Earlier today I posted about the contest celebrating the DVD orders of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Actors Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom) and Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood) were on hand launching 1000 balloons from the Millenium Bridge in the UK. Here are some photos from the event. If you live in the UK and are 18 years or older, click here to find out how to enter and win a trip to the set of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows and become a moving portrait in the film.

Enter online between October 1, 2009 and December 4, 2009. The grand prize draw will take place on December 7, 2009 – being the date on which Harry Potter & The Half-Blood Prince is released on Blu-ray and DVD.The first prize winner will embark on a tour of the Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows film set before they head off to make-up and wardrobe.

They will then step on to a set for a unique and exciting filming experience, where they will be filmed in the role of one of the magical framed “moving” portrait characters that have adorned the walls of Hogwarts in all of the Harry PotterTM films.

Fifty runners-up will also each win a pack of Harry Potter™ lenticular cards.

First prize is pretty cool - a chance to be a magical portrait in the castle is sweet. Too bad I don’t live in the UK.
